An Analysis of Integration of Internet of Things and Cloud Computing

The Internet of Things (IoT) comprises of various smart devices which are networked together to detect, accumulate, process, improve and interchange significant data over the Internet. IoT has improved our lifestyle by offering various applications such as intelligent home, smart healthcare, traffic monitoring and smart city devices. The IoT devices have restriction of power, battery life, memory and network constraints, so cloud can be used for accumulating and analyzing the IoT data. Due to the considerable increase in data transfer over Internet and other devices, the confidential information from the IoT sources required to be secure from any third party access. Cloud computing (CC) on the other side provides a protected, abrupt and advantageous data storage and computing services all over the internet. The integration of both these technologies can prove to be beneficial for each other. Therefore, we need an efficient and authentic method for secure communication in the IoT and cloud based big data environment. This paper provides a review of amalgamation of the IoT and cloud by featuring the implementation challenges and integration benefits.
